The Beaches of Espoo: Varsasaari

Just outside the continen, neasby Wested, there is a small island named Varsasaari. It is an outdor island full of small cottages. The island is owned by the city of Helsinki (even though it is in Espoo).

Everyone is allowed to visit here. You can also stay the night for a small fee. 

The problem is how to get here. We are some 500 meters away from the continent, but still. Ferrys don't come here, so you have to have an own boat, a ride to here or a cayak etc.
